Semi Moist
Dog FoodTop the List for Worst Dog Food Ever

If you feed your dog the moist dog food in packets, you are not a label reader and the dog food manufacturers have you fooled. Find out why these are toxic and the worst of bad dog foods.

I read the ingredients maybe twenty years ago, and aghast, I never thought about the little pouches of food again because the stuff isn't just bad dog food, it's the worst dog food.

Then
recently when an acquaintance was complaining about her little dogs
having all sorts of health problems, it got stuck in my mind.

Why? I didn't think this garbage was still on the market because it's so awful, but lo and behold when I took care of her little ones while she was on vacation I found that is exactly what she fed them.

I was so floored I decided to write about the worst dog food on the planet and got on my computer to copy the ingredients right from the Purina website for moist
and meaty. It's posted at the bottom of this page. I'll just give you
some highlights of a few ingredients that should scare the pants off you.

First, I don't see any food in it.

And you should have a hissy fit over corn syrup being both the 4th and 7th
ingredients! If you add these sugars up, that must rank them at at least
the third position. Candy for our dog's main meal? Don't we have enough
dogs with diabetes?

The Problem With Ethoxyquin

Ethoxyquin was concocted back in the 1950s as a rubber stabilizer for
tires. While it preserves food forever, it's also considered a huge
health risk and is banned in many countries, yet not the United States. Requests for its ban to the Food and Drug
Administration, Division of Animal Feeds (U.S.) have been ignored since
1992.

Researchers in Australia, Norway and Mexico found significant degradation to livers and kidneys from ethoxyquin.

Did
you notice pancreas disorders? Team that up with the corn syrup and you
get a double whammy. Could the combination of these ingredients induce
diabetes in dogs? Surely.

The last ingredients in moist dog food I'll
mention are dyes. Yes, many food colors are toxic and there is an array
listed. But of course dyes are needed to make this concoction look moist
and meaty!

Okay, here's the list of ingredients. Hopefully you'll notice that there is more high fructose corn syrup AND corn syrup both than beef. I'm not even going to discuss the beef by-products because you'll cry.
